Decktective: Bloody-Red Roses

Players cooperate as investigators examining a Tudor-era estate where a nobleman is found dead beside a patch of blood-red roses. The game uses a 3D crime scene and a shared deck of clue cards that reveal objects, alibis and lead details. On a turn, a player either plays a card face up to share its information or discards a card face down to the archive and keeps that information secret until the investigation ends. Cards carry values from 1–10, and a card may be played face up only if its value is less than or equal to the current size of the archive. Players discuss clues, form hypotheses and answer a set of case questions at the end; each correct answer scores points toward the final outcome.
